RE: STEEMIT: Have you ever wondered what people Blog about the most on STEEMIT? Here is the top 200 Blogging Categories.
Curious:
Where do the numbers come from?
It appears you mean to say, for example,
there were not 253 Blogs about Litecoin,
but more correctly there were 253 Story posted about Litecoin,
with each story having a number of comments.
I am not trying to come off as a grammar nazi,
just trying to clarify what you mean as a "blog"
for advertising purposes this is perhaps all fine.
for technical examination it needs some assistance
thanks and best regards
The numbers shown are the number of Blogs that have been made with the Parent Category hashag. The number are scraped straight off the Blockchain. Stephen
What is the definition of blog ?
According to Steemit, a person has "a Blog".
According to different metrics, it is a website
"A blog (short for weblog) is a personal online journal that is frequently updated and intended for general public consumption."
If we said that the numbers scraped were posts,
from Blogs,
according to Category,
we might see a much different set of numbers.
Some people may tend to revisit certain Categories with multiple posts.
If this is the case, then it might be instructive to scrape the numbers
using the user-names as the metric for each category.
Is there any such effort in this direction that you might direct us toward ?
This is a number I might find interesting for consideration.
Thank you.
